In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together butter and sugars. Mix in finely shredded carrots, vanilla and remaining dry ingredients (reserving chocolate chips). Increase speed as needed, mixing well until no streaks remain. Stir in chocolate chips. Cover and chill until dough is nearly firm, at least 1-2 hours.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Use a medium cookie scoop to scoop dough, spacing dough at least 2-inches apart on prepared baking sheet. Press additional chocolate chips into cookie dough if desired.
Bake for 11-12 minutes or until edges. Allow cookies to rest on pan for 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
